Vegas On Your Laptop?

We all play games online these days. Everyone has their favourite game to play whether it be a bit of Candy Crush, old school solitaire or a shoot-em-up although I yearn for the ZX Spectrum platform games. Instead of staring at the back of the head of the person sitting on the bus on a commuter journey, how many of you log in to your favourite game and attempt to beat that next level?

I've noticed too all the different casino games and slots that you can play online. Many of these have now made the transition to mobile too so you can play whilst on the move. Lots of sites have special offers for new customers such as casino slots with free spin offer or bonus funds for playing certain games. As well as having the potential to win you a life-changing amount of money, these games make a boring journey fly by.

For many years, casinos have provided overwhelming joy and entertainment to millions of people who have taken to odds-based games that provide the opportunity to win considerable amounts of money. Each game takes its format from particular rules and gameplay structures from recreational games originating from all areas of the world to create the likes of blackjack, roulette and poker that have become hugely popular in the gambling industry. Casinos have always held a strong affinity with players, as they not only provide a luxurious setting for them to enjoy their favourite slot, table and card game, but can do so while dressed up in a tuxedo or dress to look smart in appearance and maintain a tradition that have remained for over a century (although you'd look a bit daft in a ballgown and pearls on the morning commute, wouldn't you?).

Let me know what your favourite online game is and if you've ever won any big amounts of money playing... although pretend sacks of money from your "neighbour" on a Facebook game doesn't count!!

26 Bands From The 80's : Where Are They Now?

The other day, whilst out with my husband , I was listening to some UB40 in the car and wondered what they were up to now.  Then I saw this post from Buzzfeed and realised I totally needed to steal that idea.   BUT the problem with doing a "Where Are They Now" of the 80s is that they are either dead, accountants (dead accountants?) or in their mid 50's and, having realised they have snorted their pension up their nose, are dragging themselves onto the Reunion Tour concert circuit. So here are my chosen few that form my A-Z of 80's 'Where Are They Now?'   Do you fancy adding any of your own? Art Of Noise.   Last seen looking for Peter Gunn and desperately hoping that Tom Jones tells a "I know A rt Of Noise" story about them on The Voice. Billy Idol.   Currently setting off airport alarms all over the world after having a steel rod inserted into his leg following a motorbike accident in 1990.  Practicing Rebel Yell on Guitar Her...

[REVIEW] Canvas print from PrinterPix

Whilst dabbling in a bit of (very) amateur photography I occasionally have a favourite photo printed onto canvas.  It's usually a scenery picture and used to brighten up the walls in the lounge or at a focal point on the stairs.  Most recently I have had two images put through the process by PrinterPix . I sent off an image of my son after his Territorial Army passing out parade in April (proud parent moment) and one of our dog on the beach from a few months ago.  They were returned within a few days and looked even better than I had imagined. Soldier Boy is on a canvas that is 16" x 20" on a standard thickness (2cm) frame.  Michi is on a 12" x 16" canvas which is stretched onto a thickeer (4cm) frame.  Both have been printed using a gloss finish.   All canvases from PrinterPix are hand-stretched, use fade-resistant ink and tension wedges are fitted into the corners of each frame to aid stability. What do you think?  I'm in l...

7 Things To Do In Roda, Corfu

This year, our summer holiday took us to Corfu. We were staying in Roda on the north coast of the island and had a wonderful time. It's a beautiful Greek fishing village and has the most chilled and welcoming atmosphere I've ever experienced.  I'd love to share my recommended seven things to do if you visit Roda. Sunset over Roda harbour Swimming With The Fishes The coastline at Roda is completely flat so you can walk out quite a distance and still only be in shallow water.  The beach in the village is very sandy but becomes rocky as you move out of town towards some of the beach front hotels (twenty paces out to sea, it becomes sandy again). The water is generally very calm, beautifully warm and clear enough to see the occasional fish swimming by.   Chill out at the Boathouse As we walked down from our hotel, The Boathouse was one of the first bars we stopped at before continuing into Roda. It is perfectly placed between the rural coastal road that l...
